Badland 2000LB Winch - unboxing, review, and demo

How will this little $89 Harbor Freight winch do? Follow along as I unbox, review, and provide a demo using this 2000 LB marine winch to pull up my 1980's Vanguard Comuta-Car! This bad land winch truly is awesome! The little winch that could!

Jason I just took mine out of the box to test it, and needed someone to reassure me that the clickety-clack of its motor in operation is normal. Thanks! Never seent a Comuta-car before--congrats. Hope you got it running again.

[@jamzdotnet]

Same feeling I had initially! Glad you found the video. It's a handy little machine, I use it a lot. Still working with no issues. The electric car was running again, but the controller went bad. I haven't replaced it, yet.

[@brucejagielski7079]

I like that you showed the cable’s

[@jamzdotnet]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@jeffhahn01]

Didn’t really expect that ratchet strap to hold, lol, but glad it did.

[@jamzdotnet]

Hah! You and me both!! Not an advised way, but I made it work :)

[@StarEclipse506]

Quality content. Thanks to this I can load my Honda Grom with just a ramp!

[@jamzdotnet]

Awesome man!! It's such a handy tool at a great price!! Thanks for watching!!

[@b.dwaynearmstrong577]

That's exactly what mine sounded like just now fresh out of the box. I'll be taking it back tomorrow.

[@jamzdotnet]

I was told that's how they sound ....

[@winganly3249]

I appreciate this video. I couldn't find where someone had used flexible anchors for winch. Thanks.

[@jamzdotnet]

Glad you found it and appreciate the comment!!

[@user-jr1dn5vp8r]

Man, y’all do things differently up north. Lol.

[@jamzdotnet]

@@user-jr1dn5vp8r Pizza for sure!!

[@rollingrecords9019]

[@jamzdotnet]

Thanks man!!! Appreciate it.

[@eyejedi]

THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEO, I AM GOING TO GET ONE, TO PULL MY JON BOAT ON MY TRUCK RACK, 😎

[@jamzdotnet]

Have fun and glad it was helpful!

[@michaelkraynakjr6708]

Baught one recently. It felled miserabley, quit working, wouldnt free wheel. Pull 1 foot and shut down. Had to wait 5 min each time to kick back in

[@jamzdotnet]

Dang, sorry to hear. I still use this one. No major issues.

[@richardcataldi5464]

It's a marine winch because it's made to pull boats on trailer instead of cranking

[@jamzdotnet]

The primary application, absolutely!

[@JohnnyRebLa]

Is that why it's got an adapter to hook on a ball?

[@RFPercussion]

Very helpful. Thanks! Subscribed !

[@jamzdotnet]

Thanks for the kind words!! Appreciate you subscribing! I use this winch a lot, great little gadget.

[@kidman2505]

That's the locking mechanism that you'll find on most winches.

[@jamzdotnet]

Interesting! I had a winch on an old tractor and don't recall it. Glad it's just a normal operating noise!

[@alimirm]

Do you need to keep the car running when operating the winch? Thanks!

[@jamzdotnet]

No, it's hooked to the battery and will run without the car running. However, keeping the car running will ensure you don't pull the battery drain too much.

[@alimirm]

@@jamzdotnet Thanks!

[@RandyCessna-dh1us]

I just took mine out of the box but thought you would show us WHERE AND HOW the control wire and power wire hooks to the darn winch.All it has is a hole in front and square hole in the rear.Oh well....

[@jamzdotnet]

Thanks for watching. The power cable just plugs in. It has a protective covering you remove. The manual shows this as well, www.harborfreight.com/2000-lb-marine-electric-winch-64602.html?event_id=182713&campaignid=12236914015&adsetid=163074556235&product=64602&store=&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwu8uyBhC6ARIsAKwBGpSME2Rvuo121RqW5AbPfarfSKkEneHwlYR0QNncBa_ZgXtixn0LQIoaAighEALw_wcB

[@gregsmith9704]

When you pull on a strap on an angle like that, you diminish the strength dramatically.

[@jamzdotnet]

True
